Tayler Payne (7GNS) finished 3rd overall in the Vortex Mini ROK class after a solid two days racing.
The annual ‘Blossom’ meeting at the KartSport Hawke’s Bay club’s Carter’s Tyres Raceway at Roys Hill on the outskirts of Hastings is the longest-running sprint kart event in the country with a unique two-day format which sees drivers race round the 687m track in a clockwise direction on Saturday then anti-clockwise direction on Sunday.
With 18 competitors this is a massive achievement for Tayler, racing against some of the best junior karters in the country.
